Old "Name Server(NS)" records in zone. Can we just delete them?


we have 2003 ad domain.  we're using a/d integrated dns, 4 dc's, of them dns servers.   have number of "name server (ns)" records in zone.  these our domain controllers , our isa servers. 

however, have two "name server" entries that are servers no longer exist.  can remove them zone "properites" screen?

also, out of curiosity, issues (if any) caused having invalid entries in dns?

thanks.
